A Curious Discovery.

An Albany physician claims to have made
q curious discovery. He says he has remarked
a failing in the muscular powers of many
business men, and on inquiry found that they
had been using type writers or employing
~stenographers instead of writing their own
letters. This, te physician declares with
much show of earnestness, has deprived bust
ness men of a very little desirable exercise Of
the right arm, and has to some extent affected
their general health. This physician, it may
DO stated, is remarkable for his e1traordina-
rily acute powers of observation. Albany

The Sealing Seizures.

WASHINGTON, October 11.-There seems
to be a strong tendency in certain quarters.
notably in English newspapers, to n
meet the seizure of sealers in Behring sea
With the Canadian fishery negotiations.
Az a matter OF fact, up to the prrsent
day, the British Government never raised
tie question of the right of the United
States to exercise Jurisdiction over the
waters Of Behring sea. nor has the Depart,
nent Of State ever affirmed or d'sclalmed
that right in the course of it's correspon'
dence with foreign Governments.

LONDON, October 1O.-Whether there be
anything in the atmosphere at Berlin to
arouse suspicion in the minds OF foreigners
temporarily, or whether the German gov
eminent has at It's service an ingeniously
constituted system Of espionage there is, OF
course, no mean of ascertaining. But the
fact remains that complaints to that effect
from different sources haye been published
within the last few days in the journals of
various, European capitals. A NJ. schu-
moff writes to the Journal de st. Peters
bourg that his footsteps were constantly
dogged while he was in the German capital.
His and his correspondence
were put under the closest surveillance,
several letters that were written to him
having

tiers were several hours late. he was in

postal authorities, that the delay wa
caused in each case by the failure OF the
French mail to make it's regular connection
at Cologne. Nevertheless he found the
French paper had arrived at the cafes at
the normal hour. After about three weeks
sojourn at Der in, however, there were no
more such eccentricities in his mail service,
| which change in the state OF his affairs ne

that the authorities had ascertained that
he was not n conspirator or a person IN
any other way inimical to the welfare OF
the empire OF Germany.

DECLARED OUT OF ORDER
The convention wa at once thrown into

Po"derIy decided the resolution out OF

Appealed from the decision, and the appea

the appeal vas taken Powderly called Gen.

defeat the resolution. He said no true
Knight OF Labor could be an Anarchist.
He appealed to the delegates in impas-

OF the order by the passage Of any such
resolution. 1t was the hottest speech
Powderly was ever known to make. Quinn,
who offered the resolution, voted aye on
appeal in order to remove reconsideration.
A number of other warm speeches were
made. This was the principal episode of
the day. The general opinion among the
delega. es tonight is that no serious fight
will come up now before the convention
closes it's work. A sharp discussion is
likely to occur over the law governing
national trades districts. The fight that
wac supposed would be made against Pow.
derly and other officers is said to have
been given up.
